uhh.. but every browser autologins automatically.

*checks code suspiciously*
nothing really wrong, but i would be worried that greasemonkey sends ALL the code somewhere (in case something goes wrong).

Might be helpful if you don't accept cookies? Dunno.

I personally wouldn't advise storing logins in plaintext like that (it's just a bad habit to get into) as it can be a security risk in and of itself. Not that I have reason to believe that OP is planning something malicious, but just to be safe I would recommend resisting the urge to install any updates that come through (I don't remember if tampermonkey/greasemonkey does a check on its own, but the script itself doesn't), at least until someone can look at the updated code. As with other e6-related tools, if anybody has reason to believe there's anything malicious going on, notify me or one of the other admins as soon as possible so that we can take a look at it and hopefully prevent others from being affected by it.

But for now the code looks I see looks fine as far as I can tell.

In some cases, cookies don't last long. Incognito, Tor Browser, ...

Edit: Oh right, I forgot about incognito.

There's no update URL set, so the script won't update itself (the credentials would be lost if it did). And for the password storage, I couldn't find a secure way to store them.
